Welcome back to another honest review with me, Jerry. If you're new here, I try out new restaurants to see if they're worth your time. But before that, here's what happened beforehand. The day was like no other. My new "stepdad" Mark was saying I should get a, and I quote "real job." And stop writing these "pointless" reviews. That's why today, I'm reviewing Mark's favorite "fast food" joint. The reason for the air quotes in this context. Is precisely because, I do not deem Subway as fast food.
Anyway, back to what you all came here for. My very honest review, I walked in at exactly 2:06 pm. The first thing I noticed was the smell. It smelled like a skunk was in there, but I highly doubted there was a skunk that sprayed in this place. And with the teenagers that looked like hooligans behind the counter. I knew it could only be one thing, the devil's lettuce! I was astounded to say the least. But even though I wanted to walk right out. I couldn't, because even though some (Mark) say what I do is useless. I know my precious readers rely on my very honest reviews.
So I went up to the counter to order. Fortunately I already knew what I wanted. For if I didn't I would have had a very hard time reading the menu. Fast food or not, who thought it was a good idea to make the menu front so small?! I came here to get a sandwich. I did not know I had to decipher a code, just to see what I wanted to order!
I then looked back at the young man standing behind the very stained counter mind you. He was on his phone even though he knew very well I was standing there. I waited exactly 2 minutes and 34 seconds, before he finally looked up from his phone to acknowledge me.
He then had the gall to roll his eyes at me! I very nicely stated my order. He sighed like it was so hard to do his job! I asked for a six-inch rye bread with ham, provolone cheese, lettuce, and the tiniest bit of light mayo. The young man then proceeded to slap all of the ingredients together in the sloppiest way. I have ever seen, much better presentation at red robin. And THAT is saying something let me tell you!
After I very nicely and calmly told him only a little bit of LIGHT mayo. The darn hooligan squirted a heap of mayo, NOT light mayo mind you. All over my already horrible looking sandwich. And that's not even the worst of it! He had the gall to look me in the eye while doing it! Who did he think he was doing such a blatant act of disrespect?!
I wanted to walk right on out of there. But no, I told myself Jerry you came here for a reason. Do NOT let such fiend get to you. I took a deep breath, looked the young man straight in the eye, and said, "I would like to speak to your manager."
The boy then WHILE smirking turned to the young lady by the cash register who was filling her nails mind you. He said and I QUOTE "this old man wants to talk to you." I will have you know I'm 33! No where near what people nowadays call "old". The young lady who very much looked like she was 15 mind you. Looked up at me and I quote "What?" At this point I was beyond furious. But I kept my cool, I took a deep breath. Looked her in the eye and said VERY nicely, "The amount of disrespect that was shown to me is unacceptable. Not only do I smell the devil's lettuce in here. Your employee was extremely rude to me. While you, the so-called manager just stood there filling your nails. Which by the way is VERY unhygienic around food." I took a deep breath proud of myself for keeping my cool. After all she is just a kid, but nonetheless the disrespect is unacceptable. The young lady sighed. Looked at the boy who was trying not to laugh, mind you. Then looked back at me she then said and I quote, "I don't know what you expect me to do about that. Do you still want your sandwich? If not, could you leave, you're holding up the line."
I was once again astounded. I thought she, the manager, would at least show me some respect. But it seems you can't expect such things from teenagers these days. I then once again took a deep breath and very calmly said "I expected you to do your job. But it seems that was too much. I will be leaving a one-star review." I then calmly walked out. Still hungry, I decided to go to Taco Bell that was next door. Which was a grave mistake mind you. If you would like to read how my experience at the taco bell went.
